The best route I found by car:
>From north:
I5-S, take the Dearborn exit.
At the end of the ramp, turn left to head west on Dearborn (under the bridge
then down the hill).
Take the first right after the bridge, onto 10th ave S.
Go about three blocks to take the first non-dead-end right (King Street).
Take a right onto 12th. Follow up the hill, across the bridge, and take a
right at the light (onto Charles Street), then park on the street and walk
to the entrance.
As for taking the bus, unless you are on either the #60 or #36 routes,
you'll need to transfer, so I usually found it a bit inconvenient to do and
opted to drive. But use http://transit.metrokc.gov or
http://tripplanner.metrokc.gov

I think it would be awesome to have the meeting at Amazon. I am an amazonian
and ofcourse, I am biased by my laziness to travel far but as far as I know
Laziness is one of the virtues of a perl hacker. :-)
I am looking forward to attend the first meeting at PacMed soon.
Thanks for all the effort on the organizers part to make it happen.
Ali

Subject: SPUG: Meet at amazon.com Pac-Med office?
C.J. Collier, a longtime SPUG member and recent new hire at amazon.com, has
done all the footwork to provide SPUG the opportunity to hold our monthly
meetings in the A/V room at the amazon.com Pac-Med office (near the I-5 &
I-90 interchange). The arrangement would be similar to the years we met at
Safeco tower in the U-district (visitor sign-in, escort to meeting room).
C.J. is offering to sponsor our group in meeting there and will be our
representative (ambassador?) to the company (like Dora Choi was for Safeco).
So, what do folks think about this?
Some information I already know folks will need include: access from
freeway, parking availability nearby, size of room, projector, Internet
access, nearby food/drink establishments for pre- and post-meeting activity.
C.J. will try to provide some of that when he has a chance. I'll work on
gathering some of this information next week when I'm back in town. What
else do folks need to know (as if the location wasn't enough)?
Discuss.
(We're tentatively lining things up to meet there for our 19 October
meeting. We are still welcome to meet at Geospiza for the foreseeable
future.)
